The armor may have a few dents and need a little polish but I do believe in the ideals of chivalry. I'm a pretty simple man, not perfect but trying all the time. I'm straightforward, honest, fun loving, artistic, a bit of a nerd/geek, affectionate, and very loyal. I love the interaction of stimulating, intelligent conversation but equally enjoy the fun of silly meaningless play. I feel young at heart and still embrace many of the things I've enjoyed since my youth, why get old until you really have to! I have a serious nature but enjoy embracing my lighter side. My job is serious enough so I like to leave it at the office! I hope to meet a woman who makes my pulse race when I'm near her or just at the thought of her! :) I hope she understands the serious nature of the work involved in a relationship. I believe a relationship is work, if it wasn't we'd all be in a perfect one right now and not doing this. That said, I do think it's a rewarding endeavor. There are definitely times that may test one's limits but the positives outweigh the negatives. I've come to believe in a line from a song, "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and be loved in return." I value honesty so I hope she will share with me her true feelings and thoughts. Even when they may hurt mine, or when I might not agree, instead of telling me what she thinks I want to hear. No two people agree on everything, that's part of the spice of life, to share and grow through our differences as well as our similarities. Treat me as you want to be treated, and I'll do the same for you. Since you've had a chance to see me, please have a recent picture in your profile. Looks aren't everything but we all know personal attraction is important, though as I will, I hope she will take the time to find and appreciate the person behind the face. Thanks for taking a minute to stop by!Read more
